- The Nicolaitans Now
Many wonder who the Nicolaitans were and how they ended up being named in the Bible book of Revelation. What made this group so unique in that the author of Revelation chose to highlight them? Buried in a letter to the Church of Ephesus (Revelation 2), John has a number of remarks against this church located in a city that had a famous temple to Di...

His name can derive from a Greek root meaning “conqueror” or “destroyer.” Some think Nicolas is the same man who appears to convert to Christianity in Acts 6:5 but lost his way to a teaching known as Gnosticism, a heretical teaching that swept a...

In eating the food given to the idols. This implies they had gone to the temples to receive this food and wou...

In American culture, Christians now face a choice to blend into society or stand out in this culture of compromise. Many people in the church today, like Solomon, attempt to marry several wives in a spiritual...
Revelation 19:20. KJ21. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who wrought miracles in his presence, by which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshiped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire, burning with brimstone. ASV.
8747 false gods. Any gods other than the Lord himself. Some of these divinities took the form of images, others were mythical. Some Israelites became involved in idolatrous worship of such gods. The book of Acts records attempts to deify human beings.
